What To Expect

So here's the drill...please take note of the following:

For Your Safety

The Covid-19 pandemic has been a trying time for all of us. Please know that when we photograph your child, we adhere to safety standards which include socially-distanced photography between the subject and photographer, anti-bacterial wipes, and an abundance of hand sanitizer. Additionally, all Lot Five Studios employees are masked at all times when working with your student.
For more information on our Covid-19 policy, please click the button below.

Our Covid-19 Policy

Head Shots in School Uniform

Fall Portraits are head shots for students and staff on a grey backdrop! The look is clean and modern, and put the focus on your child and not the background.

All Oak Forest Elementary students will be photographed in SCHOOL UNIFORM. Photos are best photographed in a green, white or navy POLO SHIRT! Please do not wear school t-shirts with large logos. Make sure your student is well-groomed and camera ready, we'll take care of the rest!

Hair and Grooming

Back before Covid, we did our best to clean the faces of little ones, and ask the big ones how their hair is supposed to look. Now we do touch-free grooming which is basically helping your child groom themselves for their photos. Please prompt your child on what to do with their hair when they're in front of our camera.
For long-haired girls, we suggest wearing hair down, as ponytails and braids do not photograph as well as loose hair, and tend to get messy throughout the day. Please be aware that curls do not normally stay all day, especially when your child's picture time is at the end of the day. Hair bows and accessories should be small in size as to not distract from your student's face.

Proofing Online

About 3-5 weeks after Picture Day, your child's Fall Portraits will be uploaded to our website in a password-protected gallery for viewing and ordering.

Proofing information will be sent through the school, but our Newsletter Subscribers will get notified first!

Class Pictures

Class/Group photos will take place separately from individual portraits. Dates for Class Pictures are TO BE DETERMINED and will likely occur in the spring semester--please keep an eye out for notifications from your school.

Make Ups & Retakes

At Lot Five Studios, your satisfaction is always our goal. If your child missed their picture day, or you'd like to get a retake for any reason, your student can come back on TUESDAY, DECEMBER 14th.

Please make sure to let your child's teacher know that they need a make up or retake photo, and send us a retake request by clicking the button below to tell us how we can do better.

Everything You Need to Know About Fall Portraits

1. We photograph your child on their Fall Portrait Day (see schedule, coming soon).

2. If they were absent or if you forgot to send them in uniform on their scheduled Picture Day, please send them in SCHOOL UNIFORM any day we are on campus (10/19 - 10/21) and we will photograph them. Reminder: retakes for Fall Portraits are December 14th only.

3. Give us about 3-5 weeks to process the images and get them ready for viewing.

4. When the images are uploaded and ready to go, we will send information to the school, telling parents how to access their child's gallery with ordering instructions. If you are a newsletter subscriber, you get to know before everyone else does (perks, yay!).

5. Place an order by the deadline date to have your order delivered to the school for free. On-time orders will be distributed through the teachers.

6. If you missed the deadline, don't worry--your images will still be available for purchase, however you will have to pay a shipping fee and your order will be sent directly to you.

Cool Stuff, New Stuff

Shopping early for the holidays? We've got some cool stuff for your office or the Grandparents gifts this fall as well as (drumroll, please) Digital Downloads! Yep, that's right. Check out our ordering site when it opens for more information on new items.

A few final notes:

RETAKES will be offered for Fall Portraits on a Tuesday, December 14th. If your child has already been photographed, the new image will be uploaded in to the same gallery as their original photos within 3 weeks of the Retake date. Your retake order may may incur additional shipping fees.

Ordering Online. It's our thing. There will be cut-off date for orders to be delivered free to the school, so please keep your eyes peeled for deadlines. After the deadline, you can still order, but you will have to pay a shipping fee, and we don't offer as many cool packages or products as the ones we deliver to the school. Please expect up to 6 weeks after deadline for order delivery.

Your Kid is a Star. We'd love to use your child's photo! At Lot Five Studios, we are always looking for smiling students to use as our models. If you are interested in allowing your child's school photo to serve as one of the faces for our school-specific marketing pieces, please make sure to read the info at the end of your online order before checkout. If you do not wish for your child's image to be used, please read the info and let us know. Don't worry, we never use any identifying information about your children--just their awesome image.
